What faction would you be if it were you and not your character?

You as yourself.

Please say why.

For example, all my characters are AD because I love the aesthetic, but as myself I’d be in DC. Even though it’s a monarchy, there are some merit based opportunities and it seems more “fair” as compared to the House based societies of the dominant Dunmer in EP and the blood based purity of the dominant Aldmeri in AD. My favorite culture is Bosmer, but I don’t think I could live with such strict spiritual expectations. DC seems the most free in terms of not being forced to choose an ideology.

    EP is "the most varied in races", having one of each: man, mer, and beast race.

    I meant as a whole, not in the triad of their base races. Covenant terrority Is the least xenophobic and more welcoming of all races

    This question is actually pretty hard to answer...All my characters are EP because I thought they had the coolest combo of races + the color red. I personally believe I fit more into the khajiit culture than any other race, but I feel to attachment or interest in the Aldmeri Dominion...

    This. Maybe a dagger. I would never bow down to the Thalmor.
    EP is "the most varied in races", having one of each: man, mer, and beast race.

    It has the most impressive lore background. The racist nord, the slave owning dunmer and the argonian slaves were able to overcome their own history and form THE PACT.

    I strongly identify with Redguards. Which I have to say I actually find puzzling. I don't look like them, I hate deserts.... and yet.... They're generally my favorite race to play and have been since Daggerfall.

    Occasionally, I look at my mind and wonder.... Pretty sure I must be whacked in there somewhere!

    DC. I do think that Bretons and Redguards are probably the closest to the values I'm familiar with - societies that are relatively open and egalitarian. I do love the AD, but just can't relate to them very well.

    I'm Voting Aldmeri Dominion because I most identify with the Bosmer, but I don't fit into any of the three honestly. I would much prefer to be deep in the woods on my own, doing my own thing. Also, Ayrenn seems like a good enough ruler, and as long as she can hold back the open racism of the Altmer I could deal with the Dominion

    Where is the "other" option?

    I didn't vote yet. For now I picked the Aldmeri Dominion because I like the idea of they formed together to "Keep the freedom so they need to be in charge " while the other 2 seemed more "in power for themselves".

    So now doing Caldewll's silver I get to experience the other side now and see if this is really the case or not. Queen Aryen (spelling?) seems to have her heart in the right place from what I have seen so far.
    Not my quote but I love this saying

    AD hands down. Under Queen Ayrenns' rule only though. She is actually a good leader and cares about the whole of Tamriel. Of course I'm also partial because of Kate Beckinsale lol :blush:

    I'm sure Ayrenn has no knowledge of the various groups in her army that are doing very.... nasty things throughout Tamriel and would put a stop to it if she did. Of course her Eyes are everywhere so maybe she does know.... getting off subject kinda haha....

    Still though, I love all of their territories except Reapers March. Summerset and Auridon are simply beautiful.
